Pearl Harbor…and our Vets
Today is December 7 when we remember the surprise attack on our military at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. We honor the thousands who perished in that terrible time. My husband and I had a privilege of going to the memorials at Pearl Harbor.
Below are some of the historical pictures, as well as the modern-day memorial that stands over the USS Arizona where so many have a watery grave. It is a touching and sacred place.
WE MUST NEVER FORGET THOSE WHO SERVED OUR COUNTRY…then and now.
1897 Recessional by Rudyard Kipling
“God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle-line,
Beneath whose awful Hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!..”
